Chapter 1823 The Pirate Head Is Missing

"Ha~ Then I guess your government's Ministry of Commerce won't mind paying you a salary."

Yang Cheng made a joke and then said, "Speaking of wine, apart from South Africa, there should be no other production areas in Africa. I mean the level that can be promoted to the whole world."

He doesn't know much about the vineyards in Africa, and he certainly doesn't know as much as a native like Arik, and Arik also runs a vineyard.

Arik thought for a moment and said, "Actually, there are many areas in Africa that are really suitable for growing grapes. However, due to the years of war and the very high requirements for grape growing technology, there are very few large-scale production areas, and they are basically concentrated in South Africa. of Cape.”

After a pause, he looked at Yang Cheng, "If you just want to look for wine with different flavors, there are many choices in Cape.

Franschhoek, the full name of Franschhoek, where my winery is located, is in the city of Cape Town. There are many wine brewing factories in Franschhoek, plus the Darling Brewery. An eco-friendly craft brewery on the edge of town.

The Franschhoek Basin is a very famous place in Africa. It is the heartland of African food and wine. Spectacular vineyards here have covered the hillsides for more than 300 years. There are a variety of wineries to choose from, making wine. Wine can also attract tourists and provide delicious food.

Most of the wineries are hundreds of years old, and elegant wine estates surround the town in all directions.

Of course, I personally also like craft beer, and occasionally I’ll get someone to buy a batch. "

Yang Cheng laughed and clapped his hands, "Arik, if you don't have a huge business empire, I would rather believe that you are an excellent investment expert."

"Haha~ You're flattering me, but I did attract a lot of business investment for them."

Yang Cheng smiled and nodded, "High-quality South African Cabernet Sauvignon has both the serenity of Bordeaux and the attractive fruity aroma of California. They have thick tannins and have aging potential. The wine is mellow and powerful. In addition to the fruity aroma, Pleasant black fruits, with hints of mint.

This kind of wine goes very well with steaks and roast beef with rich sauces. Its caramel sweetness and alcohol that can dissolve greasiness are the best choices for Beijing roast duck. South African Cabernet Sauvignon can be said to be a versatile wine. , very suitable for mass consumer groups. "

Arik said in surprise, "I thought you didn't know much about South African wine~"

Yang Cheng spread his hands, "It's true that there aren't many, but we Chinese have a saying, haven't you ever eaten pork and haven't seen a pig run away?

Drink too much,

Naturally, I can tell you one, two, and three. "

Arik agreed upon hearing this, "Let me add to you that South Africa's white wine is also a major feature. First of all, it is darker in color, showing a golden yellow color where the fruit is fully ripe;

The second is the aroma of ripe tropical fruits, even jam;

The third is that it has a strong smell of alcohol.

These characteristics are consistent with the hot African sun, and are also reminiscent of fresh fish grilled with butter in winter. South African white wine is most suitable for pairing with this kind of food that is a bit greasy, slightly sweet, and not delicate in texture.

The main characteristic of South African white wine is sweetness, with that ripe tropical fruit flavor, which makes South African white wine win the favor of a large number of fans. "

"Wow, when you say that, I can't help but want to try it~"

“I happen to have this, it’s South African Sauvignon Blanc~”

Soon the butler took out a bottle of dry white wine with a hint of coolness from the wine cellar. Yang Cheng asked for the bottle to take a look and found that this wine came from the Constantia production area, which is also the Cape Verde. A relatively famous wine-producing area outside of Lang Valley.

After opening the bottle cork, a fruity aroma wafts out, followed by a touch of sweetness. The butler elegantly pours the wine into the decanter. Of course, most white wines do not need to be decanted. This step is just to let the wine be stored in the cellar. The wine blends with the air and evaporates excess odors. It does not take a long time to sober up.

Each person poured a small cup. After all, it was late at night and there was no special food, so it was not suitable to drink excessively.

Yang Cheng took the wine glass, shook it slightly, and sipped it. The cool taste gave him a freshness that was unmatched by wine. Then, the aroma of tropical fruits such as passion fruit and pineapple filled his mouth. , seems to have a mineral flavor and a long aftertaste.

As Arik said, this wine is very suitable for pairing with greasy food, which can bring out the characteristics of this white wine.

“It’s very good, and this wine is not expensive, so it should be accepted by more people~”

"Yes, as long as it is not aged and stored in cellars, new wine is actually very cheap~"

Yang Cheng disagreed with the cheapness mentioned by a rich man, but he also had his own judgment. This wine was indeed suitable to be promoted to the general public, especially the petty bourgeoisie who had just gained some wealth. In terms of enjoying life, they Don’t hesitate to invest.

“To be honest, I never took the wine industry seriously before, but after learning more about it, I found that this market has great potential~”

The golden wine was drained by Yang Cheng in one gulp, and the coolness in his mouth refreshed his originally chaotic brain.

"Since the birth of alcoholic drinks, human beings have been inseparable from this painful and inseparable drink. Now it is moving towards a position as important as food. You now choose to integrate resources and invest in it in a big step. I think it's a good time." Arik said sincerely.

In a discussion between two successful people, there is no question of who is advising whom.

"Yes, so when I found a good prospect, I jumped in decisively. I am different from you. My career is still focused on investment. Sometimes I admire you industrial entrepreneurs."

"No, no, if it's possible, let me choose again. I will definitely choose your lifestyle. You can balance your career and life. This is the winner in life. Unfortunately, I am tied to work now. I can't even accompany you." The family has very little time.”

“It’s rare to have both in life~”

Two tycoons with a combined net worth of nearly 30 billion US dollars lamented about life in the middle of the night. I wonder if the poor people would hear them and scold them for being pretentious.

After chatting for an unknown amount of time, the housekeeper came in and said, "Mr. Hansen is back~"

Yang Cheng stood up suddenly. Didn't he wait for so long just to wait for Hansen and the others to triumph?

"Hansen, we're finally back. Are you guys okay?" Yang Cheng met Hansen and Andrew who were following them as soon as he went out. He looked up and down and asked with concern.

"We are all fine, boss, don't worry. After discussing with the crew, the captain chose to continue on the road and wait until the run is completed before resting. I arranged for a ten-person team to escort them throughout the journey. After arriving in Rotterdam, they took a plane directly back to New York, and the weapons were Destroyed~"

Yang Cheng hummed, "Good job. Are you tired? Do you want a drink?"

Hansen hesitated, but Andrew didn't care so much and licked his lips, obviously moved.

When Yang Cheng saw this, he laughed a few times and led them into the room without waiting for a reply.

Arik said congratulations and wisely found an excuse to leave, leaving the room for Yang Cheng and others to talk.

The butler also kept the newly opened white wine, and also thoughtfully sent some snacks, cheese, etc., otherwise just drinking wine would be too monotonous.

Pulling them to sit down, Yang Cheng asked excitedly and asked about the entire action process in detail, which made his blood boil. Although he had also experienced chaotic gun battles, the scale was comparable to that faced by Hansen and the others. It's still different for pirates.

Last time it was about protection, but this time it was about taking the initiative. The whole process can be said to be neat and tidy, and basically not much time was wasted.

Of course, they all admitted that there was a lot of luck in this operation. For some reason, this group of pirates seemed unorganized. Hansen and the others did not encounter many obstacles during the whole process, except for the final bomb scare. Apart from breaking out in a cold sweat, everything else went smoothly, so much so that Hansen and the others were still discussing it on the way back, which was too relaxed and made people have to think twice.

After hearing this, Yang Cheng also felt that something was wrong. Logically speaking, the quality shown by this group of pirates before was quite surprising.

Of course, this quality refers to their extortion methods, not their combat ability.

Especially General Hansen, the desperado who almost self-destructed, seemed to have planned to die together from the beginning, but because of his perverted personality, he fell into the trap after being provoked by Hansen.

Yang Cheng took a few sips of white wine and suddenly his eyes widened, "Where is the pirate leader? Where is their leader? Where is the leader?"

Hansen and Andrew looked at each other. They also realized that something was wrong. Hansen hesitated and said, "We have killed a total of 20 pirates, but there seems to be no one who gave orders. Yes, this is so strange. It stands to reason. Such an organization should at least have a small leader to lead it."

Yang Cheng's eyes were gloomy, "So, where did that damn pirate leader go? Is he on the ship? If so, is he hiding? Are you planning to escape or even launch revenge when no one is paying attention?"

The more he thought about it, the more likely it became that it was impossible to explain otherwise.

"Quickly, call the ship and tell the brothers to be more vigilant. It's best to turn the tanker upside down again. Don't miss every corner where people can hide. We must nip the danger in the cradle."

There was something else he didn't say. Otherwise, if he really carried out a suicide attack, wouldn't he lose his wife and lose his troops?

Hansen responded and immediately took out the satellite phone and dialed, but unfortunately no one answered, "Maybe they are outside the signal coverage?"

Yang Cheng shook his head and said nothing. Andrew was impatient and grabbed the phone and called it himself. Unfortunately, no one answered. He was so angry that he almost smashed the phone~
